Abstract
An improved sandpaper cutting guide is disclosed having a series of recesses to receive different sized pieces of sandpaper. The longer side of a standard sized sheet of sandpaper is placed in one of the slots for cutting the sheet in half or the end of the standard sized sheet may be placed in another slot for cutting a one-third sheet piece. A cutting tool is inserted through a slit in the guide and drawn across the guide to cut a selected one of several smaller, also standard, piece sizes from the sheet. The same slit guides the cutting tool for all sizes with size being determined by the recess into which the sheet is placed. Access openings are provided to aid in removal of the cut piece from the guide. Preferably, recesses are provided for cutting the standard sized sheet into halves, thirds, quarters or sixths.
